Being Aligned with Yourself and Existential Concepts with Michael Foster [Interview]

Today we are talking with Michael Foster the Founder of Boojazz Studios, graphic designer, art director, Creative Designer, Game Developer, TV producer, and all around business guy.

Thank you for joining me on the The Polymath PolyCast, a show by PolyInnovator! Please say hello to the INNOVATORS in the audience!

We are here to talk about his book Manifestos, Reinventions and Declarations. Thank you Michael for your wisdom!!

"The Desk is the Yoga Mat"

"Manifestos, Reinventions & Declarations is a commentary on this unprecedented moment in history. This is a book about Now. The New Now we’re living in and going through. We’re living in a time when a day can feel like it goes on forever. And since billions of us are going through the same experience at the exact same moment in history, we can all be shifting the world culture together."

His 3 Principles in life:

1. It gets harder as you get older, but you have to keep looking for inspiration, those moments of magic, allow yourself to be emotionally moved by art... whether it be a movie, music, a painting or a video game.
2. It's important to be brilliant and be quick, but allow yourself the necessary time and space to be creative when it counts.
3. You accumulate thousands of good days and bad days, the trick is to have a few more good ones than bad ones.
